Sounds like he has a food addiction maybe as suggested sit down and speak to him about it, if its getting you down then that's no good. My boyfriend before my husband was exactly like that but he also wanted to make me feel bad and would make certain comments and after a while my confidence went. I tried to talk to him…

No I wouldn't be afraid of the pain its just I live in Ireland the majority of tattoo artists are terrible so there are loads of really bad tattoos walking around, if I was getting it done I would travel to London where there is this really amazing tattoo artist :smile:

I don't have any tattoos but for my 40th in two years I am thinking of getting one on my back and its a paw print with two angel wings coming out of it, I am involved in animal rescue and its to signify all the animals we've lost. I'm still not sure if I'll get it done.

I hate my stomach and legs & upper arms I like my waist and chest & hands

Hi I'm Trish from Dublin, Ireland. I'm delighted to see this thread because I am exactly like you I have a large frame, I eat well and always have done more or less all the time and exercise two to three times a week with boxing. I have wide shoulders, big boobs ( E Cup ) a small waist and a wobbly belly cant seem to get…

I can't eat cheese is there anything else I can substitute it with like quark ? thanks

Tried this last week and it was gorgeous it wasn't creamy as such but I think we left one ingredient out not to worry it was delicous all the same so thanks !

Thanks yes back on track today I generally am good during the week I'm going to boxing later so that will give me a good work out. I just find it really hard to accept how I look I just want to be slim.

When I lost over 2 stone I got my hair cut up into a funky bob and I loved it, I felt great and like a new me. I grew it back down a bit so that I could tie it up into a pony tail, looking at your picture I think a good cut would look great on you, get some layers cut in that way you dont have to get it all chopped off and…

Hi Aimee, Sounds like you need to get to the root of why you are emotionally eating when you figure that out it will help you to stop. I lost 2 1/2 stone in 2012-2013 then kind of went off the diet a little and gained back 1 stone so now here I am in 2014 more or less starting again I might add I still have 4 more stone to…

Thanks a million for this receipe, Indian is my favourite food and I was looking for a really tasty healthy dish to make :happy:

You've done brilliant you look amazing but in my opinion you don't need to lose another 20lb, you are very petite and if you lose more weight to that scale you will look too skinny.

Yes one girl who didn't agree with the amount of time I was putting in for one type of exercise lol...so she deleted me :laugh:

Thanks I was slightly confused about the BMR and TDEE but when I put my calories in as 1663 and the goal amount of weight I wanted it told me I would only be losing 0.9lb per week.

Thanks yes will try that I love most veggies so can add them on the side :smile:

Thanks alot everyone I worked out last night if I ate 1400 too much per week I would be eating 72,800 extra per year no wonder the weight wasn't coming off, I bought a smaller plate last night and had my first smaller portion of curry and rice I admit I was still a little hungry but I can work other food in to help with…

Okay so I've put my calories at 1500 I feel this is good as I do boxing Mon & Wed and on Saturdays too so other days I dont be as active, I have manually entered in some receipes and I see already I am over by 221 today so its all making sense if I was doing that everyday I would be well over 1000 calories too much per…

I went onto that site and it tells me my BMR is 1663 and TDEE is 2286. What is BMR and TDEE?

I've also just noticed that this site has all of the slimming world receipes in the database so they are the receipes I am going by so instead I will choose those ones for my diary as I didnt think this site would have their receipes :smile:

Thanks everyone good advice possibly I am consuming more calories then I think.

Thanks I was going by the calories that this site told me to use so maybe I should up my calories by 150-200 per day? I am generally really good and as I said cook everything from fresh eat loads of veg and ye of course I have my treats but not every weekend or all the time and even if I do eat treats in the week I include…

Is secretly a drag queen :)

Yes I do well more of a rest weekend I work out during the week boxercise classes and the on weekends I give myself a break I would still go for a walk or do 3 hours of housework but its not intense exercise. After I exercise for about 2 days I actually put on a few pounds but its just water retention so I drink 2 litres…

Geroge Clooney

It depends on the person really I have dated both slim and slightly heavier men. Some of the fit and attractive looking men can have the worst personalities the same can be said for slim men so for me its the person themselves not how they look. In saying that I did date a fella who was overweight and it didnt bother me at…

No just dump him ! I had that too and after months of it I got sick of it my ex was a tad bit tight on the money side of things too and he actually had my name on a calender on the wall for when he was seeing me, I split from him and some months later met my husband. He is either married or seeing someone else and tells…

Welcome, there are some right A** holes on here I was actually verbally attacked on my own page for putting in something which another person didnt consider exercise them unfriended which I thought was funny but you won't find that here :happy:

My wedding pictures that we received on honeymoon whilst sitting at the pool drinking beer and gigantic bags of crisps, I knew when I saw the pictures I had to do something and that is what has kept me going I have a picture on my mantle piece so see the huge elephant I was on my wedding day and dont ever want to be that…

I think its a personal choice for each person, if you can afford it and feel your children will benefit from you being at home all day then do it if not then work. I've had friends who took 2-3 years off work for the first few years of their childrens lives and couldn't wait to get back to work for some independance…
